    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    ... beauty, like ecstasy, has always been hostile to the commonplace. And the commonplace, under its popular label of the normal, has been the supreme authority for Homo sapiens since the days when he was probably arboreal.
    Ellen Glasgow (1873–1945)

    World history is a court of judgment.
    Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
